Hey Josh, before you make your decision, I just wanted to mention that the regular Dandy doesn't have ailerons, if that matters... .

Covering was fun...let me just say I'm glad it is done...WHEW!

First I LIGHTLY spray painted the frame white. I then covered the stab and rudder completely w/white Solite, and the wing from the top spar back (pic). Then I took blue Solite and cut pieces out that covered one half of the stab top, one full side of the rudder, and half of the wing top. I then cut the chunks of covering in half, using the zig-zag pattern on the plane. That way I had two separate pieces with the pattern.

Too keep air bubbles out, I lightly sprayed the covering that was going to be underneath the blue w/water and dishsoap, layed the pieces of blue where I wanted them, took a paper towel and "squeegeed" the water/soap out from underneath the blue, and let it sit overnight. After it dried I went over it with my iron on low heat...this tacked it down better w/o shrinking the blue. Use Windex and a paper towel to clean off any dried soap, this will also find any loose edges tho, so be careful.
